My Note: Only the Holy Spirit enables us to perceive spiritual truths Ref. Scripture I Cor. 2: 6-16
Only the Holy Spirit allows (enables) believers to perceive and take hold of spiritual truths.
Scripture: 1 Corinthians
2:6 ¶Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet
not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come
to nought:
7 But we speak the
wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained
before the world unto our glory:
8 Which none of the princes
of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified
the Lord of glory.
9 But as it is written,
Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of
man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
10
But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth
all things, yea, the deep things of God.
11 For what man knoweth
the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even
so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
12 Now
we have received, not the spirit of the world,
but the spirit which is of God; that
we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
13 Which things also we
speak, not in the words which man's wisdom
teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth;
comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14 But
the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they
are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually
discerned.
15 But he that is spiritual
judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
16 For who hath known
the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of
Christ.
1 Corinthians 3:16 ¶Know
ye not that ye are the temple of God, and
that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
17 If any man defile the
temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which
temple ye are.
To study the Bible is the noblest of all pursuits;
to understand it, the highest of all goals.
We pray that with the guidance of the Holy
Spirit, you accomplish both.
